Telephone Number
Line Owner (Subscriber Name)
Mailbox
General Information
Completing this Form
■ Lines in the system are assigned either ownership or
Automated Attendant Service coverage—a single line
cannot be assigned both types of coverage.
■ Note that more than one line may be assigned to the
same mailbox, but a single line cannot be assigned to
more than one mailbox.
■ Lines that are assigned ownership typically are used for
personal lines or outside access to the voice messaging
system if Automated Attendant Service is not used. If the
company has users who need to access mailboxes when
no one is around to transfer them to their mailboxes, you
can set up the system as follows:
- Assign extension 10 as owner of the covered
lines.
- Instruct users to press [*]
[7] when they hear the
personal greeting from extension 10.
■ See the communications system planning forms to
determine line numbers, telephone numbers, and line
owners’ extensions.
■ As an alternative to VMS Line Coverage you can use
Extension Line Coverage. See Chapter 5 for more
information.
Line # Write the number of the outside line to be
covered by the voice mailbox of the line owner.
■ For PARTNER PLUS, specify an outside line
number from 01-12.
■ For PARTNER II or PARTNER 48 specify an
outside line number from 01-24.
Telephone Number Write the telephone number of
the outside line to be covered.

responsible for picking up messages on this line. This
